You can simply opt not to use the whammy bar until you can get a real Floyd Rose. You shouldn't have any tuning problems at that point. Five springs in the back will keep the bridge from floating. The bridge will be really stable with this setup. Your preferred style of music lends itself to utilizing a whammy bar in my opinion, so I'd buy the Jackson and save up for a Floyd Rose. Of course, you can buy a Soloist which already has the real Floyd on it. You are talking about close to two grand in expenditure, though. I'm a Jackson user, I have a Dinky, but my goal is either a Soloist or an ESP Horizon FR 2. Both are in the two grand range...cost prohibitive at this point in time. But there's no doubt that I'm going to make it happen as soon as possible. Good luck. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

You don't need extra springs then. At least that's what I heard. Would be great to hear if some of you GMCers are using Tremol-No and what you have to say about it. ((Sorry for hi-jacking)).
